I got to this from an email with the pretentiously more informative subject line “The data sharing model for your non-commercial license is changing.”

TL;DR:

  • they will collect basically all IDE actions and code snippets
  • opt-out for free licenses
  • opt-in at admin level for organizations

Once they started pushing the AI shit, I immediately unsubscribed and am sticking to my perpetual/fallback (or whatever is it called) license. I don't see any reason to continue paying for new versions and features, when most of those new features are AI related, and I slowly started transitioning into nvim.

Also, I really hate the tone in which this blogpost is written. As if crying in a blog post changes anything about how extremely anti-consumer this move is. Fuck off, JetBrains.
